Jack Johnson (kings)
Craig Conroy (kings)
Chris Pronger (blues)
Erik Johnson (blues)
Setoguchi (sharks)

The only guy that hasn't moved is Iginla, but I got that jersey for $40 bucks

I'm worried to get a Dustin Brown or Kopitar jersey, I don't want them traded. I was pissed when JJ got traded and haven't worn the jersey since . . .

LOL
Grew up in Los Angeles, moved to San Jose in 1992-93 for JrHigh/HighSchool, returned to LA for college/med school 97-06, then moved to St Louis for military duty. Dabbled in Japan for 3 years, then returned to St Louis in the Summer

No ducks crap in my house though. I do remember going to some LGK ducks roasts back in the day, that was good times.

That's because there is a conspiracy going on.

I was in San Simeon ,ca visiting the Hearst Castle with some friends, I walked into this realllly nice restaurant by the pier while in my LA KINGS jersey ( 2009) and a big buff dude behind the counter told me( with a smug look on his face) " this is the Sharks country boy " and i was like yes sir, I hope he did not spit in my Clam Chowder, but it ended well.

Did you just happen to buy a Jennifer Pope jersey?

You just had to not get a Craig Johnson jersey...

I bought a blank Penguins jersey for the express purpose of making it into a Robitaille jersey. The day before I was going to drop it off, they traded him.

This is why I don't buy jerseys with active player names on them. I still laugh when I see people wearing Cehmanek jerseys and things like that.
